Common Weight Conversions Metric Weight Conversions Unit Definition (seer [India]) The seer [India] is a traditional weight unit in India and South Asia. The seer equals 1/40 maund, and, like the maund, it varied considerably from one area to another. The official size in British India was 2.057 15 pounds or 0.9331 kilogram. The unit is sometimes spelled ser. Unit Definition (ounce [troy]) The ounce [troy] is a second traditional unit of mass or weight. The troy ounce, traditionally used in pharmacy and jewelry, is 1/12 troy pound, 480 grains, or about 31.1035 grams. Thus the troy ounce equals 192/175 = 1.09714 avoirdupois ounces. This unit is the traditional measure for gold and other precious metals; in particular, the prices of gold and silver quoted in financial markets are the prices per troy ounce. The troy ounce is divided into 20 pennyweight or into 8 troy drams.
